I salute this outstanding piece of vocabulary, Mr T.

Appreciated Sir B.

I'm wondering if this isn't really a fall out between the poisonous one and the rags over who has to drop their official noodle sponsor.

Feels that way doesn't it. Going to end badly this - can feel it.

Let's hope so.

Because if/when it does, the mirth on here will be unbounded.

Didn't know Ibrahimovic was born at Salford Royal, according to the BBC......'born to play for the rags'

You know what a good day is? It's living in California, taking the afternoon off, playing golf in the sunshine, having a couple of pints afterwards with my mates, coming home and hugging my lovely wife and kids, then logging onto my computer and finding out Chelsea still own Peggy's image rights.

 

[RandomJ]

I hope Chelsea make a real meal of selling his image rights. Stretch it out as long as possible make them have to wait ages to announce him.

Ibra 200,000 a week at age 35...money to burn.

Heard on the BBC last night about the negotiations being held up by image rights. They listed some of the stuff, and all I could think was 'you fucking greedy ****, is £6m a year (or probably higher) no enough?'. Found it funny that Chelsea may get some money out of this as well, as they hold the rights to some stuff regarding Mourinho up to 2025.

Dream move my fucking arse. He's just a glory hunting greedy arrogant ****.

However, Bobby Charlton is a slightly different matter, cos of England and 1966 and all that.

I assume you're referring to the Bobby Charlton who:

1) Routinely swore at young kids who dared to ask him for his autograph (including my mate and me way back in the day).
2) Was banned by the FA from receiving FA Cup Final tickets for 10 years for ticket touting.
3) Refused to attend his own mother's funeral.

Gentleman of football? On the contrary he's a ****. Even his own family can't stand him.

But more like ... skiving the afternoon from the job centre, nicking cars in the rain, having a bottle of cider outside Bargain Booze, hugging the girlfriend and her ten kids, then logging on ...

If I were them I wouldn't fucking sell them, I don't know the fine detail, but Rag paraphernalia sales involving Maureen would be highly amusing
if the profits all went to the Chavs.
A bit like Whacko Jacko coining it in off the back of the Beatles.

What part of Radcliffe you from? Or is it just an aspirational nom de plume?

I achieved my dream of moving on to the Cams Lane estate before I came here to KL.

It certainly trumps 'The Cincinnati Kid.'

I know it well.

 

[RadcliffeRick]

I know it well.

The dreaming spires and the leafy boulevards of Radcliffe town, the crystal clear Irwell meandering through it's heart. I miss it ;-)
